Following a long chain ofPixel 3 and 3 XL leaksas well asreal-life photos, here we have a little more information about the camera specifications. The leaker has also revealed someexciting information about the working of the new live wallpaperson the Pixel 3 devices.

As per the information shared by tipster, Ishan Agarwal, on Twitter, the Pixel 3 XL will feature dual cameras on the front. Wealready know thatbut Agarwal also reveals the specification of the two sensors, both of which will be 8-megapixel in resolution.

Better Selfie with Auto-Focus

Pixel phones have been known for their impressive photography and part of it has to do with Google’s image processing algorithms backed by the dedicated Pixel Visual Core chipset. To improve that further, Google will beadding an autofocus sensor on the front, and while that may not be an industry first, the feature has been limited to Samsung flagships upwards of the Galaxy S8.

Uploaded some Hi-Res Screenshots given by the source to me. This is the new UI of the Google Camera App and Google Assistant UI. There are two front cameras, both 8MP. One with Auto Focus and f/1.8 aperture. Other ultra wide angle with FF and f/2.2.https://t.co/Kh212PviUzpic.twitter.com/MfCcTvW2ph

The primary selfie sensor will have an aperture of f/1.8 while the second sensor will be a wide-angle fixed focus one with an f/2.2 aperture. These properties should apply to both the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL. This, however, proves that our earlier speculation wrong, which was about adual-aperture mode on the Pixel 3, revealed in the smartphone’s leak earlier this month.

The rear single camera, on the other hand, will have aresolution of 12.2-megapixels which is the same as last year. Additionally, the camera will capture also 4K videos but it seems to be capped at 30fps, so no upgrade in this department too.

LiveLiving Wallpapers

Besides sharing information about the dual front cameras of the Pixel 3 and 3 XL, Agarwal also shared some intriguing information about the wallpapers preloaded on the Pixel 3. These wallpapers are not just animated but respond toactivityand interactions, so they are way ahead of the animatedbeach wallpaper introduced by Google last year.

For instance, some of thewallpapers animate automaticallywhen there’s music playing nearby, others have burst or ripple effects when there’s a new notification or the phone is unlocked. Some wallpapersalso change color with the passing of the daywhile a handful of them also tilt and turn as you change the orientation of the phone .

These wallpapers are segmented into two categories, namely “Come Alive” and “Living Universe”, so you can choose the best one to suit your personality.
